I have various shortcuts saved on the shortcut page comes up after logging in. Its set to 2 rows.. I use it every day. Used it this morning and working perfectly. Been out and when I came back the page is totally blank. I've tried sytem restore to 5th October but makes no difference. I use Windows 10 and read that Firefox are continuing to support Windows 10 I'm visually impaired and use a desktop PC with a large screen. I'm not PC techically knowledgeable. How do I restore my shortcuts or how do I re create them?

I am using Firefox on my MacOS Tahoe. There is a persistent annoying issue where whenever I close (physically fold) my laptop screen and reopen it, Firefox will be frozen. It will be frozen in the sense that I am unable to interact with any tabs or anything until I manually quit Firefox and reopen it (which automatically reopens all my tabs), making it usable again. This doesn't happen every time I close and reopen my Mac, but it definitely happens the majority of the time and makes the browser hard to use.

I've attached a screenshot of what a new window looks like when Firefox is frozen. It looks just like a Firefox window when unfocused.

Notes:

• It doesn't entirely freeze Firefox. In fact, I can "switch" to a different tab by clicking on the tab and then shutting and reopening my laptop again. The new tab will show on reopening but Firefox will still be frozen. This process can be repeated.
• I can pretty consistently replicate the bug by shutting my laptop, waiting 10 seconds, and reopening it. This will almost always result in the freeze.
• The bug still happens if I'm not focused on the Firefox window but on a different app.
• The bug doesn't seem to happen if I just lock my screen but don't shut it closed.

Things I've tried that haven't fixed it:

• Updating my OS.
• Restarting my laptop.
• Disabling hardware acceleration.
• Disabling themes and extensions.
• Deleting and reinstalling Firefox, including deleting the user data in the "Library/Application Support" folder.

Let me know if there's any more information I can provide or fixes I can try. Also let me know if I should go ahead and file a Firefox bug report for this. Thank you.

I have had Thunderbird on my HP laptop for several years. Everything has worked perfectly. BUT, I cannot receive Email, starting yesterday. When I click the Get Email icon, nothing happens. My Email server on Comcast is getting Email which I can see and read, but Thunderbird is not getting the Email. I would appreciate any advice.

Regards, Jim

Others have mentioned this but I'm not sure if there is a fix/anything is being done. The threads are all from previous Thunderbird versions.

I use Thunderbird for work. I have to find specific emails and folders - get to them quick. I am no longer able to do this. It's really distressing.

This is something really basic, that should be the default or else really easy to change.

I'm on a Windows machine and using Thunderbird 140.3.0esr. I've been using Thunderbird since 2003 and never had any problems. Now I'm panicking!

I am using an iPad. How do you stop firefox from opening a new tab when clicking on a link? I want to it to follow the link in the same tab almost always.

Thanks for you help!

I received this download from Firefox today, July 22, 2025: xRqj7qhl.html - Size: zero bytes - Kind: HTML text . I've never experienced this before. Is it legitimate? Thanks

I love Firefox and generally really appreciate the way y'all operate as a company and developer.

However, I really don't like this new function to add tabs to a group. Since it rolled out, I'm always adding tabs into groups when I don't mean to. Really, it's creating a group almost every time I move a tab around. If I delete the group, it's just more clicks and distractions to deal with.

In the past, when you've rolled out new features like this, you've also made it very easy to turn off any new feature we don't like. But I can't figure out how to turn this off. Is it possible?

Thanks for your help.

Since the Tahoe upgrade I can't login to my google account because the 'Passkey' prompt that the system is supposed to automatically trigger, never eventuates as it used to in Sequoia. I am signed into my account on the same desktop using Safari but my preferred browser is Firefox, so this is quite frustrating.

Firefox 146.0.1 crashes every time upon launch (basically fails to launch), even in troubleshooting mode, with exception code 0xc0000005. Prior to today, it was working fine. Windows does not show any updates made over the last couple of days. I am on Windows 11 25H2, and I'm current with updates. Chrome works. Edge works. I logged on to the same computer as a different user (different profile folder in the user AppData folder) and Firefox still does not work. I tried to refresh Firefox and that did not resolve the issue. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox and that did not resolve the issue. I tried to run DISM and SCANNOW and that did not resolve the issue. No issues are detected with a virus scan. I am stumped - please help!

I'm afraid I picked up malware despite Sophos due to this message upon routine searches, e.g. "Where's the nearest pet store".

I must be doing something wrong. I am new to thunderbird, migrated from Eudora since I can't send mail with Eudora anymore.

I tried to configure Thunderbird as much as possible like Eudora, but ... it doesn't receive nor send mail. On the surface it looks fine, it seems thunderbird logs into the server, it seems it sends mail and checks for new mail, only I don't receive anything, nor send anything even though it looks it does. So what am I doing (or is going) wrong? (I can still receive mail with Eudora and today I checked and received 54 mails, none with Thunderbird)

This is the message I get when I try to access my Bookmarks: "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem." I have already tried to find out from Microsoft if their latest reinstallation of Office Professional could have caused the problem. They say they have nothing to do with Firefox. How can I get my Bookmarks and History back?

Starting last night, Thunderbird 140.2.0esr has trouble connecting to Comcast email servers. In my case, I am getting an error that the connection was reset. Sometimes, if I close TB and re-open, it will connect for a bit and download new mail, but later fail. This is using the POP3 servers. On the Comcast forums, others are reporting similar issues. https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/email/unable-to-connect-to-pop3-server-this-morning/68af0959e127b572a1266228

I don't have TB on my Android phone, but Outlook is also having issues with forcing me to sign in, and that can take 2-3 tries, and will . The Yahoo Mail and FairEmail apps do work on the phone without problems. These all use the IMAP servers.
